The pace of today could be fast, but you’ll love every minute of it. For a while now, you’ve been itching for the people around you to pick up the pace, and you’ll definitely get your wish now. You could be in the middle of the action, playing conductor to a mad bunch of musicians who don’t always follow your lead. Humor will be a useful tool for getting what you want from people who don’t want to appear to be under your thumb. Reverse psychology works wonders with a younger friend.

Thoughtful as you generally are, even you can space out. And you’re likely to get sidetracked now. If you’re dealing with a romantic prospect, take care that they don’t think your interest is waning.

Slow might be your preferred speed, but that doesn’t mean the rest of the world has their feet planted firmly on the brakes. Take the lead. Then take a chance and let your relationship get up to speed.

The market has slowed down but that doesn’t mean it’s all over for you. This dearly departed phase can be looked at as the gold rush of your lifetime, not the end all and be all. Simply continue moving forward.
